Abstract
Abstract‘NemaTAM II’ (Reg. no. CV‐152, PI 699122) is a high‐yielding, high‐oleic fatty acid, runner‐type peanut (Arachis hypogaea L. ssp. hypogaea var. hypogaea) cultivar with resistance to root‐knot nematode (RKN). The cultivar was developed by the Texas A&M AgriLife Research peanut breeding program to provide growers with a nematode resistant replacement option for the former ‘Webb’ cultivar, which had excellent nematode resistance but also had a very large vine size that made harvest difficult for peanut farmers. It was tested under the experimental designation of Tx144342 and was released on 11 Jan. 2021. NemaTAM II maintains the resistance to RKN of Webb, has proven to yield equal to or better than Webb, and has higher grade potential. NemaTAM II has a shorter canopy than Webb, which leads to easier digging and inverting at harvest than its predecessor.
